The main purpose of this work is to determine characteristics of undrained shear strength of remolded marine clay at Incheon. Laboratory vane tests with remolded marine clay sampled from west coast at Incheon were performed to investigate the undrained shear strength of them being dumped for reclamation after dredging from the sea bottom. Test results were compared with the predicted values of undrained shear strength proposed by many researchers. It was found that measured results about undrained shear strength with water content was in good agreements with values proposed by Mikasa and Modified Mikasa's empirical formula.

Large quantity of extra soils discharged from excavation site in Songdo area can be treated by hardening agents and utilized in surface stabilized layer overlying thick reclaimed soft soil deposit. Though surface layer stabilization method using cement or lime for very soft soils has been studied in recent years, but studies on moderately soft clayey silt has not been tried. The purpose of this research is to investigate optimum mixing condition for stabilizing Songdo marine soil with low plasiticity. The optimum mixing conditions of hardening agents with Songdo soil such as kind of agents, mixing ratio, initial water content and curing time are investigated by uniaxial compression test and laboratory vane test. The results indicate that strength increases with high mixing ratio and long curing time, while decreases drastically under certain water content before mixing. Finally, optimum mixing condition considering economic efficiency and workability with test results was proposed.

본연구에서는 해양토질의 전단강도 산정에 대한 Cone관입시험의 신뇌도를 조사하였다. 사질토에 대하여는 내부마찰각의 불확정성을 조사하였으며, 불확정성에는 자료의 공간적 변화와 해석에 사용 되는 공식의 모텔오차 등이 있고, 그중 해석모텔의 오차가 가장 큰 불확정성이었다. 해석 방법마다 구한 내부마찰각이 서로 다르므로, 해석결과를 종합할 수 있는 주관적 견해개념(subjective opinion) 을 도입하였다. Cone관입시험을 이용하여 잡토지반에서 비배빙전단강도를 산정하기 위해서는 실훈시험이나 현장베인 시험으로 구한 전단강도와 Cone 저항력의 경험적인 관계를 이용하여야 한다. 비배수전단강도의 불확정성은 Cone 계수(Nk)의 자료 산포, Nk의 모델 오차, 이방성과 Cone 저항력의 공간적 변화 등에 기인하며, Nk의 자료산포가 가장 큰 불확정성이었다. Nk값의 산정에 이용되는 비교강도시험은 실내시험보다는 현장베인시험의 신뢰성이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다.

The propellant acquisition vane (PAV) is a key part of a vane type surface tension propellant management device (PMD), which can manage the propellant effectively. In the present paper, the fluid transportation behaviors for five PAVs with different sections were investigated by using microgravity drop tower test. Further, numerical simulation for the propellant flow in a PMD under microgravity condition was also carried out based on VOF model, and showed the similar flow pattern for PAVs to the experiment. It is noted that the section geometry of PAVs is one of the main factors affecting the fluid transportation behavior of PMD. PAVs with bottom length ratio of 5/6 and 1/2 have larger propellant transportation velocity. Based on the experiments, there were two stages during the process of propellant transportation under microgravity environment: liquid relocation and steady transportation stage. It is also recognized that there is a linear correlation between liquid transportation velocity and relative time's square root. Those results can not only provide a guideline for optimization of new vane type PMDs, but also are helpful for fluid control applications in space environment.

SHANSEP method involves the consolidation to stresses in excess of the preconsolidation pressure in order to overcome sample disturbance effect. The concept of SHANSEP is based on an approach to laboratory test which attempts to reproduce the in-situ conditions more closely than is possible in routine tests and evaluates normalized strength parameters for the soil as a function of OCR. But SHANSEP method can be applied only to fairly uniform clay deposits, and is unsuitable for a random deposit. In this study, CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test and incremental loading consolidation test were performed for the application of SHANSEP method on Yangsan clay. During the K/sub o/-consolidation, triaxial specimens were consolidated to stress equal to two times the in-situ vertical effective stress. And for overconsolidated condition, the specimens were swelled to a known vertical effective stress in order to have the desired OCR. With the results of CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test using the block samples, the relationship between c/sub u//σ/sub vc/' and OCR on Yangsan clay was established. For evaluating the undrained shear strength of Yangsan clay with depth, CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test was performed using the piston samples taken from Yangsan site. And also undrained shear strength was analyzed from the in-situ test such as Cone Penetration Test(CPT), Dilatometer Test(DMT), and Field Vane Test(FVT) and was compared with that of CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test.

In this study, a method of electrochemical consolidation is applied. This method utilizes electro-osmosis, which is an effective ground improvement technique for soft clays, and soil treatment using lime, which is the oldest traditional soil stabilizer. The mechanism of lime treatment for soil involves cation exchange, which leads to the flocculation and agglomeration. Five representative laboratory tests-an electro-osmotic test and four electrochemical tests with various proportions of lime-were performed on dredged marine clay. The objectives of this study are to investigate the effect of electrochemical treatment and to determine the optimum dose for optimal consolidation performance of dredged marine clay. The results show that a better consolidation effect was achieved in terms of current, temperature, and vane shear strength by using electrochemical treatment. The best results were observed for the electrochemical test using 4% lime content.

It is important to estimate the mechanical properties of clay since it is directly related to the design and the construction of geotechnical structures. Site exploration, which is composed of boring, sampling, in-situ, or laboratory tests, is preformed to estimate the mechanical properties. However, mechanical properties of clay measured from laboratory test may be different from in-situ properties due to disturbances occurred during sampling, transportation, storage, and trimming. In this study, the degree of disturbance according to sampling method was estimated with the test results of CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test on Yangsan clay. The soil samples were obtained by three types of sampling method, j.e., 76mm-tube sampler, 76mm-piston sampler, and block sampler. In order to evaluate the quality of samples, volumetric strain, undrained shear strength, secant Young's modulus, and pore pressure coefficient at peak measured from each sample were compared with one another. From the test results, it was observed that mechanical properties of the block and piston samples were more reliable than those of tube samples. But it was observed that the water content of piston was similar to that of tube samples at given depths while the water content of block samples was 14.3∼15.8% smaller than that of piston and tube samples. In addition to the evaluation of the quality of samples, relationship between c/sub u// σ/sub vc/'and OCR was established from the results of the CK/sub o/U triaxial compression tests, which were carried out using SHANSEP method. And also undrained shear strength was analyzed using the in-situ test data such as Cone Penetration Test(CPT), Dilatometer Test(DMT), and Field Vane Test(FVT) and was compared with that evaluated from CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test.

경기 서해안 지역인 인천 청라지구 및 송도지구, 경기 안산 시화지구 연약지반의 공학적 특성을 파악하고 각 지역에서 수행된 실내시험, 현장베인전단시험과 피에조콘 관입시험 결과를 분석하여 압축지수의 상관식, 피에조콘계수 산정 등의 결과를 도출하였다. 액성한계, 소성지수, 함수비, 간극비, 압축지수는 지반심도에 따라 분포경향이 유사하게 나타나므로 이러한 인자들은 상호 관련이 있으며 지역적 특성을 평가할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구 지역에서 실시된 실내시험으로부터 각 지역 연약점토의 공학적 특성을 규명하고자 물리적 특성과 압축지수의 상관성을 분석하여 각각 상관관계식을 제안하였다. 그리고 현장베인전단시험과 삼축 압축시험에 의한 비배수전단강도를 기준강도로 하여 경험적 방법에 의해 산정한 피에조콘계수를 비교한 결과 모든 지역에서 상관관계가 높은 피에조콘계수인 $N_{kT}$를 연구지역의 콘계수를 제안하였다.

콘프레셔미터는 피에조콘 시험과 프레셔미터 시험을 동시에 수행할 수 있는 현장시험기로서 본 연구에서는 국내 점토지반에서 수행한 시험결과를 해석적으로 분석하였다. 콘프레셔미터 결과에 대한 이론적인 해는 흙이 비선형 거동을 하는 경우와 전단변형 중 체적변화가 발생하지 않는 경우에 대하여 해석적인 해가 존재한다. 이러한 해석적인 해로부터 콘프레셔미터의 결과중 하중 재하구간과 제하구간에 대해 Curve Fitting 방법을 사용한 콘프레셔미터 결과의 해석 방법을 제안하였다. 20개소의 현장에서 수행한 콘프레셔미터 결과 중 지반교란의 영향을 적게 받는 제하구간에 대하여 Curve Fitting 방법을 적용하여 점성토의 비배수 전단특성을 구하였다. 이렇게 구한 지반의 비배수 전단강도와 현장 Vane, 일축압축, 삼축압축 시험결과로부터 구한 지반의 비배수 전단강도를 서로 비교하여 콘프레셔미터 시험 결과로부터 Curve Fitting 방법을 통한 점성토 지반의 전단강도 특성파악의 적정성에 대해 평가하였다.
